Objective ICT-2011.10.1 EU-Brazil Research and Development cooperation
For the first time, a specific "coordinated call" between the EU and Brazil has been published, to tackle topics of mutual interest. While European partners have to submit a proposal according to the rules of EU Funding, the Brazilian partners need to submit a correlated proposal to the Brazilian authorities (National Council for Scientific and Technological Development).
The indicative budget for the call is EUR 5 million, and a similar budget for the call is expected from the Brazilian Ministry of Science and Technology. (Source: Cordis)
